A truly marvelous piece. Kudos to YouTube for offering a medium for musical exploration like this. What a find. My life could have otherwise went by without me discovering Blumenfeld.
To the person below that said they played this at a recital do you have any tips for how to play this? An I am assuming you played it solo correct?
I played this piece at a recital a few weeks ago. Blumenfeld's music should be performed way more often. It's great music and I'm really glad Hexameron posts these kind of videos.
This was a really great piece! Thanks for posting! Does anybody know a good website where books of these rarely performed pieces like this one can be ordered? None of the major online sites carry these composers.
Simon Barere, Vladimir Horowitz, Maria Grinberg, Vladimir Belov were Blumenfeld's pupils. There is an amazing record of Blumenfeld's etudes recorded by Vladimir Belov (Heinrich Neuhaus' assistant and Stanislav Neuhaus' first teacher)

How I love romantic piano music. So many wonderful pieces that lie neglected!

This would be fun to play. It's like playing the last part of Ravel's "Jeux d'eau" but the whole time. Really nice sound

@ch252525 Hes not really that well known but he is well known for his etude for the left hand piece apparently.

nice stuff ... and Yes, his left hand etude is still his best known work I believe for piano. < Barere's recording is unsurpassed in my opinion.
